Recruiter reached out via LinkedIn. Initially had a phone screen, followed by a 1-hour online technical assessment. The final stage was a 3-hour remote on-site interview. Note that the job description was updated to a senior level after the technical screening. The last interview focused heavily on my current responsibilities and how my performance stacked up against colleagues to gauge my seniority.

Technical Coding
The hiring process began with a recruiter call, which was quite straightforward. The recruiter was helpful throughout. Following that, I had a second interview with two engineers. They discussed the company and technology and asked me about three questions. It's unclear what they were assessing. I was informed the next round would be a coding interview, but I didn't get to that stage.
